A Dragon's Guide to the Care and Feeding of Humans

(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Mary GrandPré. Dragon Miss Drake's pet Fluffy dies, then Winnie shows up. Winnie, a human, seems to have the notion that she is the owner and Miss Drake is the pet. An enchanted sketchbook leads to adventure when the magical creatures Winnie draws come to life. Miss Drake's refinement and Winnie's hardscrabble make-do set each other off with a vinegar-and-sweet piquancy shared by GrandPré's whimsical spot art.
